Osa Property Management’s Concierge and Vacation Planner team will contact you after you have made your reservation. We will assist with making any necessary transportation arrangements from Juan Santamaria International Airport in San Jose (SJO), or one of the local regional airports in Quepos or Palmar Sur, to property in Uvita.
We will also arrange all excursions/activities/tours with reputable companies in the area, provide a link for grocery delivery, and make reservations at any restaurant. Our goal is to make your trip to Costa Rica enjoyable and as relaxing as you want it to be.
Uvita is one of the Central Pacific's best kept secrets. The beaches are beautiful, the hills are lush, wildlife is abundant and its the perfect place to surf, horseback ride or just relax. Uvita has great restaurants (coffee shops, microbrewery, local, fine dining), grocery stores, banks and pharmacies. If you are looking for a beautiful beach destination that is far less developed than Manuel Antonio, Uvita is a fantastic alternative. The highlight is Marino Ballena National Park, featuring the famous sandy "Whale Tail" where migrating humpback whales can be seen just offshore. You can whale watch, dolphin watch or snorkel.
Uvita also makes a great base for exploring Dominical (12 miles North) which is a fun, funky hippie and counterculturist enclave with great shops, dining, live music, candlelight yoga, spas, bars and beach. The tiny town of Ojochal is 9 miles to the South and is known as one of the best foodie town in Costa Rica. Ojochal also offers easy access to Playa Ventanas, a small and beautiful beach famous for its sea caves.
For those who enjoy golfing, the southern pacific’s only golf course, Osa Golf Course, is an easy 25 minute drive south.

Unique
You must have a four-wheel-drive to get to it and it is very difficult to locate!
Once you are there, it’s a nice place to be

Amazing place
We've stayed at a lot of VRBO residences and this might have been the best of them all. It's legit that you're truly immersed in the middle of the rainforest - secluded and so peaceful.
Just be sure to pay attention to the need for a 4x4 vehicle. That's very legit. But if you have one, you'll be fine.
Thanks to the hosts for a great experience!

Perfect house in jungle, Highly Recommend!
Best parts of the house:
Jungle adventure driving to and from the property.
The full wall of windows and porch gives spectacular views of the trees.
Morning wake up calls from the howler monkeys.
Lack of bugs in the home :) very clean
Isolation, far enough away from the city to v be avoid all noise and passers by but close enough to have everything you need within 10 minutes.
Variety of wildlife seen from the house/porch. Howler monkeys, Spider monkeys, Agouti, frogs and toads, Toucans, and other birds.

Perfect Jungle Home
We loved the short 4x4 jungle adventure driving to and from the home into Uvita. Daily Monkey sightings, tucans, Frogs and other birds was a bonus. Home was clean and bug free. Close to everything that we needed/wanted.
